Chapter 221 Wanyan A Lin Has No Way Out
It's been a long time since Wanyan Alin felt that everything was out of control.

The army was still advancing, and it was still operating according to the established plan, but Wanyan A-lin was no longer sure of winning.

He even thought that it was the best strategy to directly abandon Zhendingcheng at this time and retreat to the front line of Xiongzhou to re-arm to prevent the Restoration Army from continuing northward.

Continuing to attack south will be dragged into a more dangerous situation, and there is a danger of suffering heavy losses.

And if you can give up the two important towns that are safe to defend, concentrate your troops on the front line of Xiongzhou to wait for work, and then launch an attack when the Restoration Army takes the initiative to leave the city and head north, the effect will definitely be better!
But he really didn't dare to report this kind of thing to Wanyan Liang.

After thinking about it, he felt uneasy in his heart, and decided to expeditiously send this matter back to the Central Capital with five hundred miles to let Pusanhutu know and see how Pusanhutu views this matter.

If possible, he hoped that Pusanhutu could persuade Wanyan Liang to change his strategic goals, change the identities of both sides of the war, and change from the attacker to the defender, which would be more beneficial.

With a glimmer of hope, Wanyan A-lin ordered to slow down the advance of the army, to slow down the advance a little bit, so as to gain more leeway for the future.

The five-hundred-mile rush is quite powerful. Under the desperate acceleration of the postal system, Pusanhutu learned of this matter a day later.

Then his mental journey was similar to that of Wanyan A-Lin, and he also felt like he was going to die.

If Wanyanliang knew this, wouldn't Wanyanliang go crazy?
He just set a deadline for Wanyan's neighbor to resolve the rebellion in Hebei years ago. Now that the city of Ding is in blisters, Wanyan's neighbor still has to bargain with him?

is it possible?

Pusan ​​Hutu felt that he was also in danger right now—Wanyan A-Lin was recommended by him and he also kept it by himself. Obviously, he had already registered a number on Wanyan Liang’s side.

If Wanyan A-lin falls off the chain, not only will he not be able to escape, but he will not be able to escape either. Once Wanyan Liang decides to sit together, will he be able to have good fruit to eat?
No, the battle must be won, the battle must be won, and if the battle is not won, it will be over.

Still want to retreat?

Pusanhutu personally wrote an extremely stern letter, and asked him to expeditiously deliver it to Wanyan A-lin for [-] miles, putting pressure on him to let him give up this unrealistic fantasy.

A day later, Wanyan Alin got the letter.

After taking it apart and looking at it, Wanyan A-lin's heart froze for the most part.

If he has heard Liangliang's song, he will definitely feel that this song has become his theme BGM at this moment.

Pusan ​​Kutu told him not to be delusional, and immediately attacked south to break the siege of True Ding, as many people as he could, and at the same time, he had to destroy the rebel army as much as possible, so that he could offset his sins. Just raise your head and see you.

After Wanyan Alin read it, he silently burned the letter, and then ordered the army to move forward quickly, targeting Dingzhou.

He had no other way to go.

It was December [-]th, and it was also the day when Wanyan Alin's partial division was attacked by the navy of the Restoration Army on the Hutuo River.

Xin Qiji volunteered and personally led the navy of the Restoration Army, which had been rushed down the river.

Dozens of small warships ignored the cavalry on the shore and launched a fierce attack on the Jinjun grain fleet.

Although the Jin Army sentries spotted the Restoration Army's warship in advance and issued a warning, the reaction of the Jin Army was not satisfactory. Although they tried to escape, they were quickly caught up.

The navy under the command of Xin Qiji carried a large amount of kerosene and other flammable things, and tried hard to launch rockets and throw kerosene on the Jin Army ships, burning down many important grain and fodder ships of the Jin Army, making the Jin Army fleet in chaos and uncontrollable. .

The Jin army had no navy in this expedition, and the ships were not warships. The people who drove the boats were all local people, so it was impossible to say that they had any combat effectiveness. Of course, they had no ability to fight back against the naval attack of the Restoration Army.

As a result, many Jin Army ships were forced to dock and urgently transferred supplies to the shore to avoid being damaged by the Liberation Army ships. The troops on the shore quickly released arrows to cover these docked ships.

But such ships were few, and most of them were either burned or sunk by the ships of the Restoration Army.

In the end, the Restoration Army destroyed more than 70 Golden Army ships at the cost of losing [-] ships, and then the remaining Restoration Army ships drove away.

The Jin army on the shore was busy packing up the remaining supplies, and there was nothing to do about it.

For the first time, Xin Qiji led the army to fight independently, and he made a military exploit, destroying a large number of important supplies for the Jin army.

In fact, this time, Jin Jun still learned his lesson.

Wanyan Alin asked Jin Jun to carry as many rations as he could during this march. It was two horses anyway, and there was no need for the transport capacity of one horse. Why should he rely so much on logistics?
In this way, Jin Jun can hedge some risks to some extent. In the event of an emergency, it will not be the same as last time. There is no way to deal with it, and he can only retreat quickly.

But lessons often do not make a person who is accustomed to making mistakes correct immediately, it is better to say that the possibility of a second fall is very high.

People's rations are carried by horses, while horses' rations are basically transported by water in logistics, and only a small part of them are accompanied by the army on land.

The preparation time for dispatching troops was short, and the main land transport capacity was taken away by Wanyan Alin's main force, and only a small part was allocated to the partial divisions.

Now a large number of ships have been destroyed, and not many have been rescued. The leader of the Golden Army did a little calculation after the war and found that the soldiers' rations are still sufficient, but the rations of the war horses can only be guaranteed for three to five days.

After a maximum of five days, the horse will have nothing to eat.

This is the Great Plains, and there is no rich pasture for the horses to eat, only grain, but the appetite of horses is far greater than that of humans, and soon even humans will not be able to eat.

Like horses, if there is nothing to eat, they will not be able to run, and they will become emotional.

And after this navy's active attack, Leaving Speed ​​already felt that there might be a large number of Liberation Army soldiers in front of him, and it was absolutely impossible for him to pass quickly and easily destroy the logistics of the Restoration Army.

There is little chance of wanting a quick solution.

He sent people to continue to spy on the information, and he found out that in the area of ​​Gucheng County, the Liberation Army had set up a company camp that stretched for several miles on the main traffic road, and also created a lot of mounds artificially to create a condescending situation.

Not only that, the roads along the way have been damaged to varying degrees, there are many sinkholes, the wooden bridges on the small river have also been demolished, the villages along the way are also deserted, and there is nothing to eat.

After the ships of the Restoration Army were replenished, they still did not talk about martial arts, and swaggered eastward, ignoring the Jin Army land troops behind them, and went straight forward, as if they had nothing to do with the war.

The further east they went, the more they could push Jin Jun's logistics to the limit.

With a strong wall and a clear field, coupled with the logistical offensive, Leaving Su felt that he had slipped into the chain of the Restoration Army.

They didn't want to kill many people at all, they just wanted to slow down their progress, drag down their logistics, kill them, and make it difficult for them to move.

However, the most important thing in the march is the logistics. If this is targeted, the battle is really difficult to fight.

The cavalry of the Golden Army has strong combat effectiveness and deterrent power, but they are so sluggish in logistics that their combat effectiveness is completely unplayable.

It felt very uncomfortable, as if I punched it with all my strength and hit the cotton.

After Chusui observed the situation, he thought about it rationally, ordered to stop advancing, and slowly retreated.

If you don't want to explain all the troops here, it's more rational to retreat.

Unless the threat of the Restoration Army on the water can be relieved, or the ground transportation capacity can be improved, this battle will not be fought.

If a man cannot starve to death, a horse will starve to death.

Horses starve to death, cavalry becomes infantry, what advantage is there?

It is more terrifying than the outcome of being indicted by Wanyan A-lin but able to save the army, and then recklessly advancing and ending up in a siege, possibly losing his life.

Therefore, Chusui decided to retreat and disengage from the Restoration Army.

After retreating, the speed dispatcher Xingye Jiancheng reported the news to Wanyan Alin, hoping to get guidance and let him know what he should do to complete the task.

No matter how he looked at this task, he thought it was a huge trap.

At the same time, Wanyan A Lin was also caught in a huge tangle.
